John 13:16 - Compare All Versions

Deildu

Then he said, “Do you understand what I have done to you? You address me as ‘Teacher’ and ‘Master,’ and rightly so. That is what I am. So if I, the Master and Teacher, washed your feet, you must now wash each other’s feet. I’ve laid down a pattern for you. What I’ve done, you do. I’m only pointing out the obvious. A servant is not ranked above his master; an employee doesn’t give orders to the employer. If you understand what I’m telling you, act like it—and live a blessed life.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.

I tell you the truth, a servant is not greater than his master. A messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, A servant is not greater than his lord; neither one that is sent greater than he that sent him.

Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.

Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him.

I assure you and most solemnly say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.

I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message.

I speak to you timeless truth: a servant is not superior to his master, and an apostle is never greater than the one who sent him.

Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.
